Was wondering what the difference is? Seriously!

No, your right.... both the Heaven and Hell challenges have more shoehorns in them than Barry Bonds has Human Growth Hormone.

I haven't looked yet but now I'm intrigued to see which challenge the mandatory water drop shot is in.

So what is the correct interpretation for the challenge if landscapes are a shoehorn? I'd like to know before I start voting. And no, I did not enter either challenge (couldn't think of an interpretation I could classify as heaven or hell).

atupdate, the interpretation is all up to you. I also did not enter either of these contests for the same reason you didn't. As each image comes up on your screen, does it say "heaven" to you? Does a sunset say "heaven" to you? or clouds? Because if clouds say heaven to you, your in luck....

If you're talking about simplistic, literal takes on the idea of "heaven", then certainly a dramatic sky fits the bill. I haven't started voting yet, but I assumed from the get-go there would be a lot of sky images, landscapes dominated by sky, and also a lot of beautiful gardens as well. Why anybody would think these are "shoehorns" is beyond me. Not especially creative, perhaps, but certainly on-topic.

Someone's idea of heaven could be somebody else's idea of hell...Let's keep an open mind here.

Example: All of Larus's female models gathered in one studio for a shoot = Heaven
